The Fables of Babrius. Translated into English Verse from the Text of Sir G. Cornewall Lewis. By the Rev. James Davies, some time Scholar of Lincoln Coll. Oxford. Fcap. cloth antique, elegantly printed, price 6s.
‘“Who was Babrius?” The reply may not improbably startle the reader. Babrius was the real, original Æsop. Nothing is so fabulous about the fables of our childhood as their reputed authorship.’—Daily News.
‘The Æsop of our boyhood is dethroned, and his sceptre taken from him, by no less a disenchanter than Her Majesty’s Secretary of State for the Home Department.... Here stands the fact that Æsop was not the author of the world-famed fables, but that the real fabricator was one Babrius.... So Babrius has been finally set up to rule over the realm of early fables, and Æsop passes into the category of myths or plagiarists, according to the evidence.’—Illustrated London News.
‘A fable-book which is admirably adapted to take the place of the imperfect collections of Æsopian wisdom which have hitherto held the first place in our juvenile libraries.’—Hereford Times.
